We would like to invite you to join a virtual on-the-record briefing on Wednesday, July 30, from 10:00 - 11:30 AM EDT on the implications of last month’s 12-Day War between Iran and Israel. This event will explore the consequences of the war on Iran’s regional posture, the future of its proxy network, and the domestic political ramifications of the war.

To unpack these critical questions and assess what may lie ahead, MEI is pleased to host a panel of distinguished experts.

Author of the book What Iranians Want and a contributing writer at The Atlantic

This event is the second in a two-part series hosted by MEI, offering regional perspectives on the 12-day war, featuring voices from the heart of the conflict. [To watch the first event, featuring Israeli perspectives on the 12-Day War, please click here.]
